The Little Wolfs journey

Chapter 25

"Yeah, but you can't study all the time. You have to take brakes and go out and have some fun." Ray said.

"Ray's right Ash. You need to have a balance in your life. You can't always have your nose in the books while the rest of us are out having fun. If we have to we will force you to have fun.", Sky reassuring her friend.

"I'm sorry guys, but I came here to learn how to be a Huntress, not how to have fun. You guys can go ahead, but I'm not for it." Ash said with a sigh.

"We all came here to become huntsman and huntresses, but we need to have a little fun here and there." Ray said.

"We're not asking you to give up on your studies completely. We're just asking you to take some time to relax and have some fun. After all these will be the best years of our life.", Sky said with a warm smile.

Ash let out a little sigh "No can do my friends. Mom wouldn't be pleased if she found out I wasn't studying 24/7." She said with a tiny laugh. "Speaking of which, I should probably go grab my books from the main hall." She added, standing up.

"All due respect, ash but you're mother doesn't control your life anymore. You are your own personal, you can do whatever you want." Ray said, and stood up.

Sky stood up as well. "Yeah. You don't have to do what your mom says anymore. If you want to slack off and have some fun then just do it. The only person who can say no to you is yourself now. Not your mom."

"Guys, you haven't met my mom. She WILL find a way to make my life living hell if I don't keep straight A's. I can't afford to slack off." Ash said with a sigh. "Now are you coming with me to get books or not?"

"Fine, might as well get them now then later I guess. You coming sky?" Ray asked, completely forgetting they left steel back there wondering what was going on.

Sky was about to say yes but then she remembered about Steel. How is this going to look to him if they all just left without saying anything. "Um you two go ahead and I'll catch up.", she said.

"Alright," Ash said, not arguing "C'mon Ray, let's go." She said with a smile and started walking toward the school, giving a little wave to Sky.

Ray followed behind ash, she wondered why sky wasn't coming with them. She eyes widened as she remembered they left steel back there wondering with was going on. Sky watched the two walk ahead to get the books they needed. She then turned to Steel who was still waiting. Sadness was in his heart as he looked confused with Ash's behavior.
